If you are a bit of a gardener, it's easy to harvest your own pea, broad bean or mangetout shoots to use in a salad, or you can now buy Vitacress (vitacress.com) pea shoots all ready to go in Sainsbury's. They have such a great flavour and you can either serve them on their own or in a mix with other leaves.

2-3 handfuls of pea shoots or tendrils, washed
6 spring onions, thinly sliced on the slant
1tbsp cider vinegar
tsp Dijon or Tewkesbury mustard
4tbsp rapeseed oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Whisk the cider vinegar, mustard and rapeseed oil together and season. Mix the pea shoots and spring onions together and place in a salad bowl and spoon the dressing over just before serving.
